Tim Miller

And then obviously after Rene Good was murdered by an agent of the state, he was out the next day publicly fighting with people about that on the internet and doing press conferences.

Not as much from that anymore.

I haven't really seen him posting on the internet lately.

He did get another job

He has been sent to Hungary.

Viktor Orban's re-election is up next month.

I want to do more on that here in the coming weeks here on the show.

But JD is being sent to Hungary to support Orban, one of our only allies left.

He's in a pickle.

It's hard to do the condescending hall monitor thing, you know, about how everybody's stupid and you're smart when everything's going to shit and privately you think that what you did was stupid.

It makes it a little more challenging to do his shtick.

kind of absolutely this is why he stopped posting like this is what he wants he's praying that trump will just quit the war so that he can do the thing where he's like see we didn't get into the endless wars like these other stupid presidents he was smart he got us out of there

Right.

It's unclear to me the efficacy of that, especially given the potential long tail economic consequences from it.

But I do think that's what he's hoping.

And he's really hoping that the consequences are manageable.

Americans have already died not to minimize that.

But I think he's hoping that it's something that can be spinnable and manageable so that he doesn't have to.

come out against this war because like he isn't able to like he like trump doesn't give him any ability in 2028 god willing let's say trump steps aside and we have a normal campaign like jd can't be like you know i was against him on the war like he can't do that because you know trump will post all over and maybe he could try but trump would make it very challenging so anyway we'll keep monitoring jd

I do just want to touch briefly on the depravity of our president and how just grotesque he is at a personal level, in addition to how terrible the policy choices have been over the last week or two.
